I tried looking at the model. I have no idea what is going on. I do know it was made using FSDS 98 so it may be too old to be fixed. I also can't port it into Model Converter X.

crashaz replied to a thread USS Oriskany SCB-27C/125A in FSX General Discussion

Coral Sea/Midway really needs a redo... our (Bruce Baker as well) effort for CFS2 really does not do FSX justice as we were working with a poly budget under 10K. Let me see what I have in drydock or I can find plans on so we can do them right for FSX. Very nice work with Oriskany! I had been working on the island but was not happy with my hull to put a 27C class out.

Misson I have a U.S. Robotics 56k Faxmodem V.92. Is this what you used and if Yes how did you get it to work with this new fangled Internet set up? Anyone else As I told Misson. You send me a Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) time and I'll set up and you can look for me. For me to join Mission I had to disable my Windows Firewall. My XP dosn't have a Antivirus but you should also disable any Antivirus as well. In the Control Panel is the Windows Firewall. On XP once youn open Windows Firewall you will be at the place need to shut off the Windows Firewall. On Win 7 once Windows Firewall is open on the top left is "Turn Windows Firewall on or off" Click on this than you will be at the place needed to shut of the 2 Win 7. Disable both the Home or work (private) and a Public Firewalls. Most Antivirus all you need to do is find it on the lower right and right click on it. There should Disable or Pause option.

AussieMan replied to a thread Fairchild 24 Series is away! in FSX General Discussion

At the moment I have a WIP of an RAAF Ranger powered Fairchild 24. The RAAF had impressed 4 F-24s during WWII. 3 Ranger powered and 1 Warner powered. The one I am working on actually carried its VH-ACW registration for the duration of its RAAF service. As I am working from a B&W photo I am not really certain but looking at it the main scheme appears to be Foliage Green. Australia used Azure Blue for the under surfaces. While I am retired and 'supposedly' have a lot of free time at the moment I am cleaning out the house (getting rid of a lot of that stuff 'I might need later' that has accumulated over the last 25 years) so I only have time at night to do any painting. At this rate I hope to have this one ready for the weekend. I have also googled up several other Aussie Fairchild 24s, both Ranger and Warner powered. And DoubleCool I have saved some of those you have put up and will attempt to get those out as well.

You can have it but you either need to pick it up in st pete or pay shipping. if you make the trip to my loocal, I will show you some real radio gear. Like my 2990 base and my 2970 mobile, and some really great antennas and ideals and how to use your new gear. Bring your radio and I will make you the jumper you will need.

WarHorse47 replied to a thread This is baffling in FSX General Discussion

Thanks, Bill. Good stuff. The challenges (and learning curve) are coming from adding textures and porting over some aircraft from FS9. I'm learning that when textures are added to FSX aircraft, not all the readme.txt entries are consistent which in turn caused the issue I first posted. Same goes for some port-over aircraft from FS9 as the FS9 aircraft.cfg goes by different rules.

Well, the only thing I can recommend now is to refund you. If you want to hang on a few days, I might have a fix, but for now, the only thing I can do is a refund. Milton is having the same issue. Plane is totally invisible and for no apparent reason. Just to recap; * FSUIPC should be up to date * The installer 'must' be installed directly into the FS folder. IT cannot (cannot) be opened in a subfolder or 'new folder' or other drive. It 'must' be opened into the sim or this will happen.

Rami replied to a thread Kelti, I'd appreciate your opinion, please! in CFS2 General Discussion

Yes, that's true. My solution to that, because I have all of his scenery packages installed, is to have a common folder called "Tobob land and watermasks" for those files, and then have the "TB_xxxxx" folders separately. Yes, as you correctly fixed. I correctly anticipated, because the layout box is about six miles in rectangle form, that it would be a multi-gob GSL file. Before using GSLedit, I ran it through Gob checker, which split the layout into three parts. I hadn't done that yet with the layout file because I wanted some input and feedback from Kelticheart, and now Jagdflieger, and if possible, Xavierb.

Rami replied to a thread Kelti, I'd appreciate your opinion, please! in CFS2 General Discussion

Stefano, I am well, though I had a meeting before the school board recently because some parents didn't like the content I was teaching. (The Banana wars, Sanford Dole and US economic interests Vs Hawaii, US occupation of Haiti, putting the Shah in power, Eisenhower sending the Marines into Lebanon, etc.) Because I was not espousing my own beliefs on the students and was well entrenched in the facts, the school board, the teacher's union, and the school principal backed me 100%. Mom's also been reasonably stable in dialysis, so that's a plus. And, my eldest daughter is going to be five soon! Yikes, huh? I am attaching a beta testing package here for you. I don't think you'll have problems with this, but you need the scenery for the layout to work properly. I included a couple of modified files I use that were given to me by Robert John at my request. Let me know if you can't find anything, or if something looks funny!

Hey RedDog, The DLL files need to stay there in the F24 folders. We could not have a uninstaller as it would leave some planes without certain functions as they share components of this plane. How about redownloading the Installer and running it again. Being that its 500+ megs, perhaps it has a birp in it and is corrupt. It does happen. If that doesn't do it, then we may have to do a refund.

Have no fear about the NSA unless you actually have something to hide. There is no problem with the Academic version (I have it). You just buy it and download it, about 14GB worth, and install it and go flying. The CH products work with P3D but you need to do a couple of thing to get them working. When you get P3D just send me a PM and I will explain the procedure. TrackIR has an upgrade on the NaturalPoint website. If you need help just send me a PM and I can see if I can help.
